EVILS or A LAND BOOM.

Some Of the evil results of the big
land boom at Los Angeles, Califor-
MIA, are beginning to be felt by pro-
perty owners. Last year Los An
geles county was assessed at S40,-
100000. This year, it is said, the
assessment will be $l4O,0OO,OOO. To
pay taxes on such an assessment
will bankrupt some of the big land
holders and will force small specula-
tors out of the market.

THE GIRL GRADUATE.
| From the Pioneer Press

This is the season in which we
hear much about the girl graduate
the ''sweet girl graduate" as she is
termed by the average newspaper
man of the day. From the bow Of
ribbon which ornaments her essay to
the patent leather tips of her dainty
boots she is discussed and criticized.
Year bv year our schools ard semi
naries"turn out" these young women.
Year by year the number thus re-
leased from school-girlism is great
J.. - question arises what be-
comes of these girls ? What good do
they do in the world I? Whether they
go back, as some favored few will to
live in the homes Of their parents. or
marry and assume the responsible
ties of homes of their own, as q larg-
er number may, or set out to earn a
livelihood as perhaps the largest
number will, they have mission.
We known that il is Customary to
laugh AZ people who confess to hav-
ing mission, vet whoever accom-
complished much in this world who
hadn't one, whether recognized 10y
himself or not? To the girl grad
uate then belongs mission. 1t may
be in limited, prosaic sense but
still mission She is all the better
off if she has some genuine loork to
do. Her education 50 far has fallen
short of what it might have achiev-
ed if she has not learned, as did
Froebel that Labor is the price which
the gods have set upon all that is
excellent Above all things then
do somethingl Don't be idle, and
don't be too particular, at first about
the kind Of labor. IF the kind most
desired cannot he obtained take the
next best, or the nexts and if you
have true genius for something high
er aud better it will get an outlet
somewhere, sometime. In class of
twenty graduates few days ago,
there were four girls. They have
done as well in school as the sixteen
young men who received diplomas
with them. We are sure that what
ever field of labor they enter they
will always be found on the right
side of the temperance question.
The gil graduate should early
let be understood that that is
where she stands and that
she is also an nti-tobacconist.
Let her never reckon too lightly the
magnitude of woman's influence, and
let her WELD IL always for the right,
the pure and the true. However
bright and fair tae world may look
upon graduation day somewhere in
the dim future are "breakers-a-
head Into each lot some rain
must fall" Then must our girl grad
uate be prepared to meet trials and
difficulties. If IN the midst of her
school training she has neglected to
seek first the kingdom of God" If
firm faith in Gods wisdom and good
ness is not stroHg underlying prin.
ciple, what must she do in the hour
of trial and temptation? The Ever
asting Arm" is needed then, and
with it to lean upon she may I'M
harmed by temptation. chastened
but not broken by affection, reach
that sublimity of soul which human
lty only attains at the price of sor-
rows encountered and overcome.
Much of what has been said about
the girl graduate would apply equal
ly as well to the boy graduate, but
since this column is only read by the
ladies it would hardly be profitable
to include him.

A singular phenomenon is noted at
Groton, Brown county, Dakota. At that
place is large artesian well, Oa Thurs
day morning it was found that spring
of water had appeared upon the surface
about 200 yards from the artesian we'll
and was flowing strongly, Investigation
showed that a crack in the earth existed
extending from the artesian well to the
spring. This opening is of unknown
depth, measurement having been made
only some some sixteen feet downward
without striking bottom. TIE connec--
tion between the artesian well and the
spring is thus clearly established. The
mystery now is, what caused the earth
to open. 1t hardly seems probable that
the pressure OF subterranean water 10
sufficient to displace the crust OF soil
and rock and none Of the inhabitants OF
that section have knowledge OF an earth
quake convulsiop. Ysnkton furnishes q
case somewhat similar. Since the flow
ing we'll was struck in the city park as
many as dozen springs haye appeared
at the base of the Missouri bluff 400 or
800 yards distant from the we'll. In this
instance the earth has not cracked, the
water finding outlets througha a chalk
formation.

and the Grand Army did not want to

Iowa the sentiment seems generally to
be hostile to Che epresident visiting St.

diana or any other states no Que can say.
would have ADVISED against inviting
the president.
The position is well taken. At this
stage OF his incumbency every public
movement OF the president contemplates
political effect. His presence OF the
national Grand Army encampment at
st. Louis would be made an occasion
tor advancing the political plans OF
party associates and to
this the Grand Army cannot
lend its prestige. 1t was once we'll nigh
wrecked upon the rock of politics and
these who saved the organization from
imminent destruction placed in it's
creed perpetual prohibition against
political tendencies or induigencies. The
Grand Army was reorganized upon
purely charitable and sooia. basis and
as such it has become an element of
strengthan the friend of needy ax-
soldiers and their families. It cannot
now afford to lead itself to political
display. 1t will be better for Its mem
bers to remain away from st, Louis than
to go there to give significance to the
boom OF o candidate for the presidency.
